The good news for the readers is that the Japanese regulation steals shamelessly from ISO 13485. If your organization has an approved ISO 13485 Quality Management System certificate, issued by a notified body, then compliance to MO 169 should be that proverbial cakewalk. However, there are some quirky nuances specific to doing business in Japan. In this book, the doctor will breakdown and provide guidance on the responsibilities of MHLW, PMDA, JPAL, JIS, and the MAH. Enough acronyms for you? Dr. D has also added some lessons in Japanese, while expanding on the importance of the Chief Impalable Officer (the Senior RA\/QA individual) that will be required to fall on the sword if quality and regulatory issues arise. I hope you find value in this book as the doctor's intent is to not only teach but entertain as well. After all, books on quality and regulatory compliance are notoriously boring, so Dr. D has taken some liberty and injected some of his infamous dry humor into his fourth book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Jospeh Devine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/05\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.62d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781490927770\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA well-known and respected medical device industry quality and regulatory expert, Dr. Christopher Joseph Devine is the president and founder of Devine Guidance International, Inc., (DGII) a consulting firm providing regulatory and quality compliance support for the medical device industry.
